General talk about software patterns

[Messaging Design Pattern <dsheppard2k AT yahoo.com>]

Dear List members,


Please find enclosed a second draft based on the Conceptual model:

- Natural Language of Concepts

http://sites.google.com/site/concept12345678/concept/Natural.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1

A compilation of papers can be found at

http://sites.google.com/site/concept12345678/concept/Realistic.doc?attredirects=0&d=1

The draft includes several new ideas:

- Complete Mathematical Model (expanded)
- Boole's logical engine and conceptual deductive approach
- Conceptual Design
- Appendix G. COGNITIVE/AI MODELS (PRELIMINARY)

As usual, please make your comments/questions as specific as possible based on the documents. This allows me to send appropriate  responses. Feel free to quote specific sections of the draft.

Happy father's day and  best regards,

Al

Onderwerp: [patterns-discussion] Concepts and a Realistic Information Model

Dear List members,


I hope you are all doing well. Please find enclosed a link to a draft discussing Concepts and a Realistic Information Model:

https://sites.google.com/site/concept12345678/concept/Concepts.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1

A compilation of papers can be found at

http://sites.google.com/site/concept12345678/concept/Realistic.doc?attredirects=0&d=1

The draft includes several new sections and revisions based on the feedback that I have received:


- Model evaluation and Metrics (includes references to
empirical studies)
- References (revised)
- Mathematical Model

By the way, I found a couple of references that seemed interesting (better late than never):

“We can note in passing that one of the biggest problems in the development of object-oriented SW architectures, particularly in the last 25 years, has been an enormous over-focus on objects and an under-focus on messaging (most so-called
object-oriented languages don’t really use the looser coupling of messaging, but instead use the much tighter gear meshing of procedure calls – this hurts scalability and interoperability).” Alan Kay et al.

Tighter gear meshing of procedure calls has also been characterized as “The complex machinery of procedure declarations” while discussing problems associated with traditional APIs [26].   

I've been receiving good feedback on the overall effort:

"The [Conceptual] approach is very interesting, relevant, and can be applied to several different CS topic areas/courses."

"Applying Biomathematics and Philosophy to software engineering models and programming languages is a novel concept."

"The goal of finding new uniform bases for computing is laudable ..."

I'm also working on a book publication. The publisher has asked me to provide a list of potential reviewers for a book proposal.

The scope of the effort is limited to one-page questionnaire regarding
the proposal.  If you are interested in participating,  please contact me via email. I'd really appreciate it .

As usual, please keep making your questions/comments as specific as possible. This allows me to send appropriate  responses. Feel free to quote specific sections of the draft.

Best regards,

Al
